Stay civil, please edit

Please be civil on the Bigfoot talkpage, Chubster. Don't imply people are conspiring ("you’ve managed to organize a successfull takeover of this article"). Don't accuse people of lying, name calling, or WP:NPOV violations without examples (diffs or quotations), because accusations without evidence are personal attacks. I understand it's frustrating that (almost) nobody agrees with you, but keep in mind one of the central tenets for editing Wikipedia talkpages: Comment on content, not on the editor. Don't berate other editors and don't edit war, or you could eventually find yourself blocked. Bishonen | talk 22:45, 3 April 2011 (UTC).Reply

All well and good and I guess Orangemarlin was just being frank but Dreamguy was harassing. He gave me a 3RR warning when I only made 2 edits and called me a “ridiculous pro-Bigfoot editor” like I have a disease. Just before all that Jess had to warn him for “Biting” another editor.--ChubsterII (talk) 20:28, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
I agree DreamGuy didn't use the best template for the warning, especially not his header on your page: there was too much emphasis on the technical 3RR rule, when the point was really edit warring, not the bright-line rule about not reverting more than 3 times in 24 hours. But I was actually at the time thinking of warning you not to edit war myself, as you seemed well on the way to it. If you look at the History tab, you'll see that nobody else is reverting the same edit twice, the way you do here and here. To never revert the same edit more than once is a good principle, which makes you respected and which many editors hold by. If you check the Wikipedia:3RR policy, you'll see that it's actually called Wikipedia:Edit warring. The 3 reverts/24 hours rule is not an entitlement to revert a particular number of times. I also agree DreamGuy bit Timpicerilo (who is generally himself very civil) rather nastily — but then Jess told him off, which is sufficient as far as I'm concerned. I might have done so too, if I'd been around for it, but it's by now an old comment, and you won't find any admin prepared to complain or warn an editor about something that was said ten days ago. Ridiculous like you have a disease ? Surely not? Anyway, no, I'm afraid I can't agree with you when you say you weren't nearly as rude as they’ve been. But I'll tell you what: if DreamGuy bites you, please drop a line on my talkpage straight away (these complaints must be reasonably fresh) and I'll do something about it if I'm around. (I usually look in for a while every day, though I can't give any guarantees; we're all volunteers.) Bishonen | talk 00:07, 5 April 2011 (UTC).Reply
